So I realize it is Mother's Day weekend so I might not have to deal with receiving paperwork yet.

WH came in through the garage "because it was open" but I did that on purpose to show that I had broken down the 15 boxes in the garage myself and was doing the recycling. Might as well make my actions of independence visible. He ended up mowing the side yard and had to dump out the grass in the yard debris so he saw that I loaded it with the rest of the branches I trimmed.

Now earlier S climbed the steps on the play structure and I felt like it was a milestone so I texted WH to tell him (I told him I would let him know about major things- being true to my word.) Yeah...I could have waited til he arrived to pick up S! But I kind of wanted him to see it, get excited, and then have to tell OW why he was excited. Don't know why exactly, but, I wanted to do it.

So then when he was done mowing, he came in and asked me about the climbing. I said he also has been pulling himself to a standing position like crazy and he said he noticed that, too. Then told me to watch out for the gate at the top of the stairs...won't bore you with the details.

He asked if S played in his play tent and he was choked up when he asked! wth?

OK so I know this wasn't the planned drop off, stay at the door, don't linger. But I felt like it was ok.

So then another thing-just interesting is all- he left a check for the daycare deposit. I looked at it and noticed it was just his name (no surprise) but had OUR address on it. When he opened his checking account last year, he also rented an apartment the same week. So why not put that address on the checks? weirdo!

Ok off to work out then get ready and hang with my new friend!
